We are pleased to announce that we’ve been accredited by the Cyber Essentials scheme.

This accreditation, issued by the UK government’s National Cyber Security Centre, confirms that our ICT defences have been assessed as “satisfactory against commodity based cyberattacks”.

Cyber Essentials is a government-backed scheme which helps organisations protect themselves and their customers against common cyber-attacks. Many of the UK’s leading business organisations recognise the accreditation, including the CBI and Federation of Small Businesses.

Compliance

Everyone at CompanyNet takes cybersecurity seriously, and this award backs that up. Achieving Cyber Essentials accreditation involves not only ensuring our systems are secured technologically, but also that we have excellent governance in place to prevent attacks like phishing and hacking.

We hope this independent Cyber Essentials accreditation will help reassure our customers that their valuable data enjoys a high level of cybersecurity.
